Question

Studying this brochure from nasa, which explains more detail the instruments carried by the Juno spacecraft which scientific activities will jump conduct on its trip to Jupiter? Check all that apply

Answer 1

Answer:

Juno scientific payload includes:

• A gravity/radio science system (Gravity Science)
• A six-wavelength microwave radiometer for atmospheric sounding and composition (MWR)
• A vector magnetometer (MAG)
• Plasma and energetic particle detectors (JADE and JEDI)
• A radio/plasma wave experiment (Waves)
• An ultraviolet imager/spectrometer (UVS)
• An infrared imager/spectrometer (JIRAM)

Explanation:

Each mission of NASA has a specific set of instruments that it uses to perform scientific experiments on the desired heavenly body. In case of Juno, the mission for Jupiter has a series of instruments that would study domains of gravitational forces, magnetic effect, particle detection, radiation detection, UV/IR imaging, and plasma experiments.
